My reason for creating this blog is to share with you issues which I feel are not given enough attention and to share my opinions on issues which are well known. My aim is to ensure that those who read my blog are not bored by politics or the news but instead take an interest so that we can work together to develop our awareness of the world we live in.

I think it’s important that we all stay connected with what is happening across the world because so many people are ignorant of what is going on – I’m not saying I am any better but part of the reason for me making this blog is to keep myself up to date!

Why is my blog called tea and turmoil? Well, whilst we sit back at our laptops/computers or with our ipads/ipods/phones we can still appreciate that there are wider problems in the world than our own.
